摘要：
An advanced automatic grouping method for form-finding of tensegrity structures is presented. In the proposed method, properties of self-equilibrium and stability in tensegrity structures can be obtained by using the force density method combined with a genetic algorithm. A constrained minimization problem is formulated using the standard deviation of the force density in the cables. As a result, the minimum number of member groups for tensegrity structures with automatic grouping can be obtained. This elicited regular tensegrity structures with uniform force density values. Moreover, the geometrical and mechanical parameters of tensegrity structures with multiple states of self-stress can be easily obtained by using the proposed method.
